4.1. A first example.

let’s start with a really simple example we will create an anatella data transformation graph (or, in short, a “graph”) that reads a csv/text file when you run anatella (e g when you double click on the anatella icon on your desktop to open it), anatella automatically creates a “blank” (empty) graph that is directly ready for you to use click on the “input” panel on the right side of the window, here from the “input” panel, use your mouse to drag\&drop into the central window the icon (taken from the right side panel) this icon represents a “ csv/text file reader ” it allows you to read the content of a csv/text file here is an illustration of the procedure thereafter, double click the icon inside the anatella graph this will open the configuration screen of the “csv file reader” click on the button and select a test csv file you should obtain something like this we just created a very small anatella graph that reads a csv/text file named “d \test csv” now, we would like to know if the settings of the “csv file reader” are correct (is it the right file? is it the right separator?) to check if the settings are correct, we would like to “see” the csv file make sure that the button in the main toolbar is checked (normally, it already is) and thereafter click the “big blue dot” inside the “csv file reader” box this “big blue dot” is named an “ouput pin” and it represents the “output table” of the action here is an illustration of the procedure
